Can You Hear Me Now? Nope.

Check out the video here. Now, it does really look like the woman is adopting the all-too-familiar posture of someone exchanging inanities with her BFF by phone as she strolls down the street. Irish filmmaker George Clarke made headlines a few days ago after noticing the segment on the DVD extras for the movie and pointing out how eerily similar her posture was to cell-phone hunch.

LiveScience Magazine contacted Skroska, who was happy to take a look at the clip and offer an informed opinion.

"If you'd seen that video 30 years ago, it wouldn't have even occurred to you" that it was a cell phone, Skroska tells Daily RFT. When most people think of an ear trumpet, they think of a huge, cartoonish object jutting way out from someone's ear. Yet, "most people really aren't that keen on letting people know they have some kind of hearing disability," Skroska says. Even in 1928, he explains, an ear trumpet might have been small and, dare we say it, iPhone-like in proportion.
